	Author	Review
United States	Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times	"My Night at Maud's is about love, being a Roman Catholic, body language and the games people play. It is just about the best movie I've seen on all four subjects."	POS
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"A date movie with a touch of class."	POS
United Kingdom	Tom Milne Time Out	"Still one of Rohmer's best films."	POS
United Kingdom	Tim Robey Telegraph	"As a canvas for Rohmer's ideas, it's crucial in making them feel as crisply distilled and newly debatable as the day they were aired."	POS
